Adriene Mishler

Mishler was born in Austin, Texas, into an "artsy family". Her mother is of Mexican descent. Her father is Jewish. She began her career as a professional film and television actor, as well as performing as a voiceover artist, but after taking a yoga class at a studio, Mishler had a realization that she wanted everyone she knew to "have this experience [of yoga]", and completed a yoga teacher training course. == Career ==

Mishler started Yoga With Adriene in 2012, with the help of her producer and business partner Chris Sharpe, whom she met when working as the lead on a horror indie film. She was part of the "I'm Here to Create" film series and was the face of her own yoga clothing line, as well as a member of the Adidas Women Global Creator Network. In 2018, she made a tour of Europe leading yoga mass classes. From 2015 to 2024, Mishler launched a 30-day yoga challenge to celebrate the new year, releasing one video every day starting on January 1. In 2025, she released a 7-day yoga challenge, as she focused on her personal as well as her team's mental and physical well-being while still continuing the series. == Reception ==
